It is understood that there lias

roads and the Burns' ditch people re

roads are to pay.
As this is an indication that the strongest opposition against the Burns' ditch has been satisfactorily dis
posed of. the indications that the pro Ject will succeed are brighter.

HlMOi EXT SUNDAY
One of the best attractions which is
dated for Towle's opera house In the
near future is the "Blue Mouse,"
which is coming to Hammond on Sunday, Nov. 14. It was originally expected to have this attraction on a week night, but the poor reception that was given "Girls," the other Schubert atraction which played here on a week night, induced the management to have the show booked in Hammond on Sunday. The "Blue Mouse" is one of the best attractions that has ever been booked
for Hammond. It is expected that it
will play to a capacity house here ou Sunday.
The play is a musical comedy and is
said to be rich and racy. As musical comedies make a great hit in Ham
mond, there is no question that the
"Blue Mouse" will draw a big crowd.
"The Washington Society Belles" is the attraction for this evening. This is a burlesque, and in view of the fact that Hammond has such an Insatiable desire for burlesque, there is no doubt
that the house will be packed.
"The Washington Society Belles"
played to a Hammond audience only a few months ago and they liked this city so well that they are coming back again. The show is said to be well
equipped and to have a good looking
chorus.

that the record made last fall will be broken in this campaign.

TIMKV Bl'RR.W AT THIO STATE CAPITA l Indianapolis. Oct. 27. The railroads which enter Gary, Hammond, Indiana Harbor and East Chicago, may not get off so easily in the matter of taxation another year as they have In the past. The state l.ivud of taxation is , lanning a tour of inspection of the properties of the railroad in the northern part ' f the state, especially in the vicinfty of the cities named, with a view to stiing them up and determing on their assessable valuation. The inspection will not be general as the members of the tax board are satisfied with the returns made by the roads for taxation. throughout the state at large. However, they are of the opinion that where property values are increasing so rapidly as they are in the northern Indiana manufacturing towns, that the railroad properties must be correspondingly increasing, hence the proposed tour of inspection. Gary has ben especially dissatisfied with the proportion of taxation assessed against the railroads running through that city, complaining that If the railroads were made to pay their share of the taxes, that the rate charged the small property owners would be very much less than is the case at present. Much disappointment was expressed over the last valuation of these properties by the state board.
